I would recommended trying it, there's gotta be some hidden VESA mounts in there.
Its not that hard, maybe google or youtube it and get a good idea, Usually there are some screws or its all clipped together. Just keep any tools away from the LCD display, dont want any scratches.
The advantage is more space, if there are mounts or if you possibly find any other screw holes that can be used it would be more solid build.
